Mi Querida Fino Largo

Description

Product Description:

The Mi Querida Fino Largo is the vitola that put Steve Saka’s Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust on the map with Broadleaf lovers — a full-bodied, unapologetically bold cigar built entirely around one man’s personal maduro obsession.

Construction & Origin

Mi Querida uses a heavy, 100% naturally fermented Connecticut River Valley Broadleaf wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler, hand-rolled at Nicaraguan American Cigars S.A. (NACSA) in Estelí under master cigarmaker Raúl Disla. It’s the sophomore release from Dunbarton, following the brand’s debut Sobremesa line, and was created by Steve Saka — the industry veteran behind Drew Estate before founding Dunbarton — specifically to capture what he calls “a robust, extremely flavorful liga” built for the hardcore Broadleaf enthusiast.

Flavor Profile

The Fino Largo opens with deep coffee and cocoa powder notes, developing into dark chocolate sweetness balanced against earthy pepper and a lingering spice on the finish. It’s a full-bodied smoke with excellent construction — reviewers consistently note a flawless burn and thick, satisfying smoke production from first light to the final inch.

Why It’s Sought After

The Fino Largo vitola specifically was named Leaf Enthusiast’s 2016 Cigar of the Year, narrowly edging out a Padrón 1926 for the honor — reviewer Aaron Loomis wrote that after finishing his first one, he immediately bought three more. It remains one of the most consistently praised sizes in the entire Mi Querida line, and continues to draw dedicated fans who specifically seek out this vitola by name.
